These bootcamps are intensive, fast-paced learning experiences designed to help you prepare for specific certification exams. Each session builds on the previous one, so attendance is required for every day of the bootcamps.
Our evening bootcamps are short-format (4 days, 4 hours/day) and designed for CIAT students who’ve completed IT courses — they focus on exam objectives not covered in class.
Our new fulltime bootcamps are 40 hours in total (5 days, 8 hours/day). These are comprehensive programs for IT professionals, covering all exam objectives from start to finish. At this time, these new 5-day bootcamps are available to all students for the CompTIA A+ and CompTIA Security+ exams only.
For A+ and Security+, students have two options: they can either attend the short-format 4 day, 4hours/day from 6-10pm PT, or attend the full 5 day, 8 hours/day bootcamp.
Make the most of your time: Set personal study goals and plan to take your certification exam shortly after the bootcamp.
